The four modifier keys on a macOS-compatible keyboard are Command, Option, Shift, and the Spacebar.

The four modifier keys on the Windows keyboard are Ctrl, Alt, Shift, and the Spacebar.

The keyboard shortcuts rely on four modifier keys on macOS-compatible and Windows keyboards: Command, Option, Shift, and the Spacebar on the macOS; and Ctrl, Alt, Shift, and the Spacebar on Windows.

Some of the same key combinations are reused to provide different actions depending on which tool is currently selected. For example, holding down the Shift key while using the Rectangle shape tool constrains the shape to a square; whereas holding down the Shift key while using a Cloning brush sets the clone destination.
